Advances in Wireless and Mobile Networking

Dear Colleagues,

This Topic collects Selected Papers from the 15th edition of the IFIP Wireless and Mobile Networking Conference (IFIP WMNC 2024, https://www.unive.it/web/en/6439/home), which will be held in the wonderful city of Venice, Italy, on 11th-12th November 2024. Authors of papers presented at the conference are invited to submit extended versions of their work to this Topic for publication. IFIP WMNC 2024 will represent a discussion forum for researchers, professionals, and students interested in novel developments in mobile and wireless networks, services, and applications and mobile computing. IFIP WMNC combines PWC (Personal Wireless Communications conference), MWCN (Mobile and Wireless Communication Networks conference), and WSAN (Wireless Sensors and Actor Networks conference) into one event. Submissions outside this conference are welcomed as well. The main topics of interest are (but not limited to):

• Wireless and mobile communications and networks;
• Wireless technologies design and evaluation;
• Handoff, location, and resource management;
• Network and service management and control;
• Cognitive radio and massive MIMO networking;
• Network security solutions and protocols;
• Traffic and network modelling;
• Software-defined wireless networking;
• Wireless sensor and actuator networks;
• Low-power wide area networks;
• Vehicular cyber–physical networks;
• Communication technologies for the IoT;
• Ad hoc networking, positioning localization and tracking;
• Mobile cloud computing and applications;
• Multicasting and broadcasting issues;
• Intelligent transportation systems;
• Content management and distribution;
• ML/AI for network management;
• Knowledge, information, sensor, and data fusion: applications, approaches and algorithms;
• Unmanned aircraft systems/unmanned aerial vehicles/drones/remotely piloted aircraft systems (UAS/UAV/RPAS) wireless and mobile networks communications and applications.
